    Cheaper to keep a kid in tourney fishing than paying attorneys to keep them out of jail !!

    Re: Custom Painted Reel (Big Bass Man)

    What kind of paint & clear coat do you use? Iv been wanting to do some reels for a while, just didnt know what to use. Iv worked & own a paint store for 25 yrs, just dont know much about that kind of painting.
    GREAT job, That looks fantastic.

    I used createx paint and D2T epoxy for the clear . Its a tough job, but well worth the effort .

    Sweet looking reel. Now you just have to figure out where to attach the treble hooks and diving lip...
